Question: What do you think of 'Supper or Beauty' poem!?
Everyday the fishing pole called, hook smiled!.
Everyday the bayous melted my eyes anew!.!.!.

With watercolors vapid, vagrant, hyacinth-call!.
And the bass waited, finning defiantly,smiling!.

Sitting on that wharf, wanting that night's feast,
Realizing the feast was already before me!.!.!.

What beauty to relish with seasoning of years!.
What years to relish, already seasoned!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Very nice, felt like I was sitting right next to you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Contemplation and contentment - my favorite fish (trout) - course that was because - we were only near rivers - had to go to the ocean (river's mouth) to find the bass!. Liked the "hook smiled" - great visual!. I guess I'm odd man out - what's this all about Dondi's face - did I miss something or did Snidley start it all !??Www@QuestionHome@Com
